About Beechina
Beechina is a rural locality in the Shire of Mundaring in the Perth Hills of Western Australia, about 45 km east of Perth at the foot of the Darling Scarp. Its name is the Nyungar word for a white gum valley to the north-east of the locality, first recorded by surveyor P. Chauncy in 1847 while mapping the first road to Northam. The townsite was gazetted in 1904 beside the Eastern Railway, and the Great Eastern Highway passes through it today.
